After 17 years of regular publication, and having reached
a significant audience across the Hispanic world, HUMANITAS, Christian Anthropological and Cultural Review of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile launches its English
version.

According to the information the website www.humanitas.cl, in the banner saying "PRESENTADA EN EL VATICANO HUMANITAS EN INGLÉS" (Humanitas in
English was presented in the Vatican), this initiative was officially launched on November 29th, on
a ceremony at Vatican City, in the see of the Pontifical
Commission for Latin America.

site, important authorities of the Holy See and
distinguished representatives of cultural associations from Rome and other places and countries took
part in the ceremony.

Founded on 1995 in Santiago de Chile and constituted by a Contributors Council, which gathers the most
intellectually outstanding figures of the catholic universe, HUMANITAS defined its mission from the beginning as a "body of thought and study that
seeks to reflect the concerns and teachings of the Pontifical
Magisterium" a premise for dialogue with contemporary society and culture that has proved to
be greatly fruitful.
